              I think they’re a bunch of cunts. Is that controversial?

                Seems to be posting anti-tariff stuff that doesn’t explicitly use the phrase ‘tariffs are bad’.

                                This is enjoyable. Musk hints at it, but I wonder if he'll post the math about how much cash $$$ he can provide for each member of congress based on his net worth. I guess the math is he could give $780 million per member of congress, if you divided his $420 (heh) billion by the 535 members.

                                  TSLA down 18% on the day so far.

                                  It's bringing down the whole market. Mommy and daddy are fighting.

                                          Some responses, that if there were incriminating evidence of the sort Musk has access to, the Dems would have found a way to release it by now, do seem reasonable.
